Understanding Your Future: Common Questions
What exactly is included in a comprehensive estate plan?
A typical plan includes a Revocable Living Trust, a Pour-Over Will, Durable Power of Attorney for finances, and Advanced Healthcare Directives. Together, these documents ensure your wishes are honored and your loved ones are protected.
Why do I need a trust if I already have a simple will?
While a will directs assets after death, it often requires probate—a public and costly court process. A trust allows for the private, seamless transfer of assets without court intervention, saving your family significant time and stress.
When should I consider searching for an update to my current plan?
Life is fluid. We recommend reviewing your plan every three to five years, or whenever a major life event occurs—such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or significant changes in your financial landscape.
Does choosing a trust mean I lose control over my assets?
Not at all. With a Revocable Living Trust, you typically serve as your own trustee. You maintain full authority to manage, sell, or modify the trust assets during your lifetime, just as you do now.
